Um, from what I've been told, it is a monster/ witch from Russian folklore that spirits children away. I not exactly sure, but I would love to read about them. It also means 'witch', and 'hag'. By the way, love the movie and the book, but the movie is nothing like the book. Might as well call Coraline Annie and have her stay to have buttons sewn into her eyes. Fudge you, Henry Selick!!

Is the other mother in coraline a spider?

Yes because she is constantly tapping her fingers, she wears red and black because shes a Black Widow and near the end when Coraline is at the final showdown with the Beldam, Coraline falls into a giant spider web.

What does coraline mean?

Alright. When Coraline returns through the little door the 2nd time, the Beldam says "how nice of you to send this nice cheddar, coraline." so then, she says "would you go fetch your father, i bet he's hungry as a PUMPKIN by now" so then, while Coraline and the Beldam is talking, right after coraline figured out her parents are stolen, the other father is a PUMPKIN. and also wen she tries to collect the 1st ghost eye. and, if you have a recording of the whole movie, or if you have the movie, in the other world, when Coraline walks through the theatre, when spink and forcible unzip their disguises, and wen they grab her, pause it. u can see the 2nd ghost eye. the third ghost eye is in mr. b's circus. Now, if your talking about what the NAME of Coraline means, im sorry for being so stupid. Well I looked it up and it says... "Coral (Latin)." i hope that helped if u saw the movie too

Who is the Other Mother in Coraline?

The Other Mother is like Coralines real mother exept better. Or at least that's what Coraline thinks. The Other Mother soon turns evil and wicked and traps Coraline behind a mirror so that Coraline dies and the Other Mother feeds on her. But at the end Coraline beats the Other Mother at her own game!Untill the Beldams (other mother) hand breaks off and Coraline traps it in a well! Cool Story huh? In addition, she probably is a mischevious,bad supernatural being summounded by the devil.
